The period for filing complaints to challenge 2020 property tax values in Ohio ends on March 31, 2021. For properties assessed in a 2020 county reappraisal or update, a reduction in the 2020 value may offer greater tax savings now than at any point for the next three tax years. However, the potential impact of COVID-19 on tax year 2021 values must be carefully considered.
Property tax values in Franklin, Hamilton, Montgomery, and Delaware counties, among others, saw reappraisals or updates in 2020. Many commercial property owners in these counties saw increases of 20 percent or more over their 2019 tax values.
